The International Court of Justice (ICJ), established in 1945, serves as the principal judicial organ of the United Nations. Located in The Hague, Netherlands, the ICJ settles legal disputes between states and provides advisory opinions in accordance with international law.
The Court operates from the Peace Palace, a historic building inaugurated in 1913, which also houses other institutions dedicated to international law. Over the decades, the ICJ has played a pivotal role in addressing global legal challenges and promoting international justice.
